Fusion With Sympathy

Hey y'all!

The last couple weeks, I wasn't able to get my creation done in time to participate in the Fusion challenges, but this week I did.

Here's Fusion #7:

If you're not familiar with the Fusion challenges, you have 3 choices: create using the sketch, use the picture inspiration, or "fuse" them together.

Again, I chose to fuse them, and here's my take on it:

The sentiments are from my new set of stamps (I recently won a gift-certificate to Our Daily Bread Designs), and decided to use them today.  I stamped them directly onto my paper, as this week's challenge over at CAS-ual Fridays is to "stamp on DP".

And this week's challenge over at Flourishes Timeless Tuesday is to use butterflies.

Sympathy cards are (emotionally) tough to make, yet important to have some on hand.

Thanks for stopping by today!
